hey folks this is Sean Hollister with CNET and I'm on a scooter board filming this video on an electric skateboard meet scooter travels at about 15 miles per hour let's see what that looks like right now zoom it along here it can probably catch bikes pretty easily how am I able to film this because the scooter board has an integrated handle where I can do my throttle up here with this lever and the brakes and back and use this single handle to steer the whole contraption or use my feet like a skateboard because the whole fork up front the trucks up front tilts instead of turning when you move the handle or move your feet kind of like a hybrid between a skateboard and a scooter that's the idea taking a closer look I'd say a 250 watt motor back there powering this device while i zoom along it should take me about eight to ten miles on a charge there's also a mechanical breaking back if I want to step on that back break in addition to the electric brake just give you a closer look at the fork up front truck there you can see how it swivels and the whole board bends when I move the handle back and forth and you do the same thing with your feet and then if you want to collapse the whole thing down just pull up here on this lever and you've got a 22 pound package there you can just pick up by the soft grip and carry with you in China this is known as the in motion t3 but it's currently being brought to the US via a Kickstarter campaign it's going to cost about $600 when they finish that up and also Chris grab the handle back here and wheel it along with you trolley style that's the scooter board you'll be able to read more about that on cnet.com
